DZOFilm Arles Lustre 25mm T1.6 FF/VV Cinema Prime Lens (ARRI PL, Imperial)

Bring a poetic warmth to your full-frame visuals with the DZOFilm Arles Lustre 25mm T1.6 FF/VV Cinema Prime Lens, crafted to evoke nostalgia with a distinctly amber-toned character. Designed for ARRI PL-mount large-format cinema cameras, this prime lens combines a retro metallic body, a fast T1.6 aperture, and a warm coating profile to deliver a dreamy, cinematic look—ideal for stylised narrative work, period dramas, music videos, and creative commercial content.

Covering a 46.5mm image circle, the lens supports full-frame, large-format, and VistaVision sensors, providing filmmakers with expansive framing and minimal optical distortion. Its wide 25mm focal length, paired with the bright T1.6 aperture, delivers exceptional low-light performance. It enables a beautifully shallow depth of field, creating soft background separation and glowing bokeh that enhances the emotional tone of your shots.

Part of the Arles Lustre series, this lens features coatings specifically developed to produce amber halo effects and organic tonal warmth. Aimed at cinematographers seeking artful expression, the lens brings a signature visual identity while maintaining modern performance. Its ARRI PL mount can be swapped out for optional Canon EF or ARRI LPL mounts, making it adaptable across multiple camera systems.

Engineered with a cine-style form factor, the Arles Lustre 25mm includes 0.8 MOD focus and iris gears, with gear positions consistent across the series to streamline accessory setup and lens changes. The lens also features a 95mm front outer diameter and supports M86 front filters (except the 14mm), offering flexibility for use with a lightweight matte box or direct filters. Additionally, it’s compatible with DZOFilm’s Koop rear-mount magnetic filters, allowing for fast ND and effect filter swaps without breaking your setup.

Weighing in light enough for handheld, shoulder-mounted, or vehicle rig configurations, and offering dual-scale focus markings in feet and metres, the Arles Lustre 25mm is a seamless blend of vintage charm and contemporary reliability—making it a compelling creative tool for cinematographers who want to turn reality into visual poetry.
